Condolences to Mo and his family. And Kudos for performing as well as he did this season under trying circumstances.

Best wishes to him and his family. He just assisted on
game tying goal vs. Caps as I type this. Kudos to
him for even trying to play
during this difficult time.

Condolences and best wishes to Mo and his family. He wasn’t popular here and I think the fans were pretty unfair but when someone goes through something like this it’s hard and I hope he finds his healing on the ice.

Sorry to hear the sad news JarMo. Best wishes and thoughts in this hard time. Lost my mom 4 years ago to cancer when she was 65. Play hard!
